The first part of the white paper focuses on a very simple customization and covers the following basic steps:- Extend the Microsoft Dynamics AX commerce runtime (CRT) by writing a new CRT service. (No change will be made to existing Retail software development kit [SDK] code.)
- Extend Retail Server by writing a new customer action.
- Make changes to the Retail Modern POS (MPOS) UI design in Microsoft Dynamics AX, and push the changes to the store.
- Extend MPOS by using the new Retail Server/CRT functionality from the UI.
- Microsoft Dynamics AX: Add a new data entity that is related to a retail store, and populate it by using a job (no UI).
- Commerce Data Exchange (CDX): Configure CDX to include the new table in data synchronizations.
- CRT: Add a new data entity and new service.
- Retail Server: Expose a new controller for the new entity, and add a new OData action.
- MPOS: Add plumbing to call Retail Server, and update the UI to expose data.
